I just read a really interesting interview Pat did of Marc "Animal" MacYoung. It reminded me of something else Pat was saying about kata and bunkai on Saturday (I'll paraphrase) -
"In most of the books, all you see of the kata are the positions you end up in at the end of each move, as if that's the most important part. What they're leaving out is how you get to that position...what happens leading up to it. That's where the good/important stuff is."
